The standard 4-2-3-1 Wide formation for Al-Nassr should yield the best results in specific modes of EA FC 25. In the wide area, Portuguese goal-scoring machine Cristiano Ronaldo will be the solo striker. Apart from being active in the front, he has to drop back to the midfield area to take on the opponent’s deep-lying playmakers.
Sadio Mane and Talisca will act as inverted wingers to help Ronaldo in the final third. Among all this, Otavio will be the primary playmaker and create chances for the front three. In the midfield area, Marcelo Brozovic will help the team build up counter-attacks and join the forwards to pose an additional threat to the opponent’s penalty box while Abdullah Al-Khaibari will hold back and help the defense line to negate the opponent’s counter-attacking opportunities.
Sultan Al-Ghannam and Salem Al-Najdi will help the wingers from the right and left accordingly. Meanwhile, Mohamed Simakan will be the perfect choice for a rock-solid defender. Aymeric Laporte will be the ball-playing defender to help the midfielders during counter-attacks.
